Hi guys, i don't want to be a smart-ass or anything :) It may seem to people looking at this thread that some are complaining which i don't think is true.. Thanks Google for doing this btw! Must be a logistical nightmare to deliver so many phones at once, especially in Europe too, which, considering we're talking about the Nexus, is kind of cutting edge because otherwise Google doesn't directly sell phones in most of our countries. But precisely for this reason it's probably very hard for us to have the official status of every phone, so i think posting updates or about our own situations, in this thread, is understandable because we know more about what and when to expect...
Just my humble thoughts :) P.S. I think it was done before, but i'll ask for it again anyway: if you get the phone (especially in the EU) from the seeding program (and not from ADC cause apparently there was some confusion about that) please remember us and let us know :) On Apr 12, 9:32 pm, Mirko Nasato <mirko.nas...@gmail.com> wrote: > Yeah why don't you two launch your own free gift program, only to call > it off some time later?
